Eddie Biggins - They're Closing the Doors (The Old Timer Song) Lyrics

I admit I was shocked when I first heard the news
The Old Timer was closing down
What great times we had and it sure is a shame
That it won't be around

Now the music will play no more
And part of my heart is left behind
Since I heard that they're closing the doors
For the very last time

There are not many places like this any more
They've been lost to changing ways
So I'm grateful for every Sunday I spent
And all those St. Paddy's Days

Now the music will play no more
And part of my heart is left behind
Since I heard that they're closing the doors
For the very last time

I remember the old days when Jimmy held court
And sang for one and all
Didn't matter your age or what town you came from
Everybody had a ball

Now the music will play no more
And part of my heart is left behind
Since I heard that they're closing the doors
For the very last time

So thanks for the music and fond memories
That filled us with such joy
And dear Jimmy's presence remains in our hearts
Sweetly singing Danny Boy

Now the music will play no more
And part of my heart is left behind
Since I heard that they're closing the doors
For the very last time
